Question and Answers

Common questions we have been asked through the years. Please feel free to send more questions to me at Palidusdreamgoldens@outlook.com

Why are you no longer a KC Assured Breeder?

KC stopped the Assured Breeder Scheme in 2024. They have brought in health Standards instead. All of our mamas and stud dogs will have the maximum health standards required.

Why do you not have a licence?

We do not breed enough for it to be an issue. In Scotland, you are required to have a licence if you breed more than 3 litters a year.

What does holistically raised puppies mean?

Our dogs are raised with raw food, They have bones to clean their teeth. They have worm counts to check for worms before treating for worms. They have Flea and tick treatment only when needed. They have titre tests to check for vaccination levels rather than new vaccinations every year.

If all this is new to you. I suggest reading The Forever Dog by Becker & Habib and Theholisticvet.co.uk

Do the puppies come lead, potty and crate trained?

No. The socialisation process starts with us, but you need to continue at home.

Getting a puppy is exciting, and understandably, people cannot retain all the verbal information given. Hence, I send you home with a puppy pack that details all the stuff the puppies have done and where to continue with their socialisation. This needs to be read. However boring it may seem. It has valuable information to help with the puppies' next few weeks.

Any issues I have had with puppies and puppy parents have all been down to people not reading the information given.
